ABOUT THIS EPISODE:
Auk is in charge, so heads up. The guys set the show up with a real agenda. Tani leads off with a correction and then Nathan gets geeky on reach and fit calculations for his new Santa Cruz Highball. Not surprisingly, they get off track and into a full dropper post discussion.
GoPro. Do you use one or not? Nathan, Tani, and Auk tackle the issue with GoPro's and video in general that we all struggle with - producing the video afterward. With the convenience, accessibility, and quality of phone and small cameras, do GoPro and competitors still have a spot?
PLUS
- Bike Park Rider Etiquette. Nathan's friend sent him some rules for the bike park.
- MAN DOWN!! Tani shares a funny story.
